Prior to the start of the meetings, people chatted to one another and talked of the election. The organizâ€" eérs tested the microphones, others hunted for more chairs to take in the There were of course the other comments and questions â€" the thoughtful ones that drew appreciaâ€" tive applause from the crowd.
